Shock and Awe(Revision 74)

An F.A.E. is as effective as a nuke, butfriendlier to a post-battle environment.-Steve Jackson's Car Wars

During the gun ride, the Mark XIX grenade chucker will have infinite ammo and a thermal safety. Get on the ball and start zapping enemy RPG snipers, AA guns, and their BMPs. Although you can survive a few hits from the small arms fire, a large gun will probably kill you or the chopper you are riding in.

Burstfire the Mark XIX and be wary of enemies who respawn when your chopper flies back to the same area again. After a little bit of chatter, your ride will land and you can get off to rescue your mates.

Once off the bus, you need to slowly drag your carcass over to where the green smoke marker is. Smoke the enemy gunners on the street and head into the building where 2nd Platoon is. There is a secret here in the building, so don't jump off until you're ready.

Once you have rescued the platoon, eyeball the building with the machinegun nest right in front. Wander over there, head to the second floor and kill everyone so you can search the premises' second story for the secret.

Get back on the bus and watch as you need to make a foolish rescue. Once the chopper lands once more, if you had taken an RPD, you can use its 100 round magazine to zip to the downed Cobra. Otherwise, any other weapon will do, since you cannot fire once you engage in a fireman's carry.

Hopefully, you have enough friendly NPCs to attack enemies so they don't shoot you in the head. Carry the woman pilot to the transport and evac.
